@Unseen What difference does it make, whether or not Free Will actually exists? Recently I’m thinking that all that matters in terms of how we think and behave is whether or not we believe in it. (And yes, I’m good with saying that what we believe in is also determined… just as are the external, environmental effects on our internal state. While…[Read more]

[…] We will go on holding people to account because we have to, in the sense that this is how we respond to acts that displease or enrage us. We respond in this way because we have to. Literally. We have no real choice but respond that way.

Increasingly often, I’m wondering how important it is to answer this question with…[Read more]

NEWS FLASH!! Person A DESTROYS Person B. The REAL TRUTH about Blah Blah. These days, those are headlines I skip over. But when it comes to tons of new reactions to The Warning still coming out from people who haven’t heard of them, Pope Beanie finds new favorites. In this case, four guys happened to pick a great song/official video for their first…[Read more]

I’ve liked Don Music for a while, he’s above others in the experience and reporting department. Thanks for the reminder, I’ll watch these later.

(Relatively) new eyes on classic rock. This reactor says she was an actor, once. I think she enjoys putting people on,  reminding me a bit of Philomena Cunk. (She is smarter than she acts.)

This old man reactor first struck me as a blowhard, but he soon showed me how good he is at correctly predicting what this video was about. He also pointed out a couple things in it I hadn’t noticed before. XXI Century Blood is one of my favorite produced videos from any band. It still boggles my mind that teens came up with this, and I wonder who…[Read more]

Saw these quite a while ago. They’re brilliant! And fun.

I’ve found myself having more fun recently, away from world events, and such. I’ve written some responses here in other topics, but just haven’t finished them yet. Think I’ve lost a few of them… meh. Lot’s of good stuff in the world to see, still, whenever anyone’s interested.

I’ve been…[Read more]

The next song works well, as reacted to by Anna, a favorite of mine now. I love the first, beautiful style of the singer, but not the second style. Anna’s reaction to it smoothed out the experience for me, and I got to learn something in spite of my dislike of it. The instrumentalists are also highly skilled and make the song great, too. This is…[Read more]

Here, one of the masters, Rick Beato, analyzes what he says is the most complex pop song of all time.

When I heard that song many years ago, I had no idea there were so many chords, as I assumed they were the same bunch of chords repeated throughout. Rick put up another video about this song maybe a year or two ago, in teacher mode,…[Read more]

And of course vote AGAINST Trump.

I’ve not decided on that, yet. I don’t like DeSantis and other GOP choices, although of course DJ McNasty would be the worst. And I’m more hopeful that someone other than Biden wins the primaries. (It’s like, hopeless in any case.)

I’ve not paid attention to the polls, and I probably won’t…[Read more]

I’m learning from what may be the best reactors now, who have obvious expertise, and experience with critiquing music. So I think they fit into this topic as much as great music videos without a critic. Anna Vaskelainen is one of the smartest I’ve discovered so far, and passionate as well. She picks up so much on just her first watching. Turn on…[Read more]

Thanks Reg!
